Doomsday Sequence Convoy: I can upgrade supplies

Chapter 20 Even in the apocalypse, there will always be a city of dawn!
Old Man Li didn't participate in the battle, so naturally he couldn't participate in the distribution. Now that he stood up and volunteered not to participate in the distribution, Captain Hui didn't say anything more to him.

Instead, he looked at Chu Sheng and the other two and continued, "There are a total of five extraordinary materials. Now that Chu Sheng can fuse them with the sacrificial offerings, these extraordinary materials have become our strategic resources."

"Based on the amount of effort put in this operation, Zhu Qing, as the person under the most pressure, possesses two sets of extraordinary materials. If it weren't for him, the monster boar would not have been killed at all, and it would have caused us a lot of trouble."

Hearing what he said, everyone present nodded.

Seeing that everyone agreed, Hui continued, "As for Chu Sheng, he also made a great contribution. If it weren't for him, even if Zhu Qing had suppressed the monster boar, it would have been a matter of time before it broke free. Although it might have been killed in the end, there would definitely have been a great loss."

"Therefore, Chu Sheng also received two portions."

"As for Anxi and me, we'll each get one."

Chu Sheng, who had been silent and staring at the pig's spine, suddenly froze, as if he had discovered a blind spot, and turned to look at Captain Hui.

"There are six extraordinary materials, but only five are available here."

As he spoke, he looked down at the pig's spine and raised an eyebrow.

Team Leader Hui didn't keep them in suspense and went straight to the point: "Let's not talk about the four pig trotters, that's four sets of materials. As for the pig spine, anyone with eyes can see that it's not quite the same, so let's count it as two sets of materials."

"Is this arrangement alright?"

"No problem." Everyone shook their heads.

Indeed, it is reasonable to count this one pig spine as two portions of material.

"Since everyone agrees to this arrangement, let's select them according to their merits first."

As he spoke, Hui looked at Zhu Qing and said, "Zhu Qing was in charge of the direct confrontation this time, so you definitely deserve the most credit. Without you, no matter how much damage Chu Sheng inflicted on the monster, he wouldn't have been able to kill it."

"Do you agree or not?"

“No problem.” Chu Sheng shook his head. Although he had killed people before and had no moral bottom line, he knew very well that Zhu Qing had indeed contributed more this time. If he wanted to stay in the caravan, he had no choice but to accept this fair arrangement.

Moreover, he did agree with Hui's statement.

This time, only Chu Sheng and Zhu Qing had the right to choose the pork spine.

Zhu Qing glanced at Chu Sheng, then at the pig spine, and scratched his head. "I have no use for these."

He only wants the strange fur to make clothes; he has no interest in anything else.

However, thinking of how hard Chu Sheng had worked for him in the battle, Zhu Qing coughed lightly, "Then I'll choose pork spine."

As he spoke, he looked at Chu Sheng and said, "If you want pig spine, give me two pig trotters later, or help me fuse two sacrificial items for free."

"This pig spine is too big; it won't fit on your motorcycle. Let me carry it for you so it'll be easier to get on the road."

"What the hell are you talking about?" An Xi, who was listening from the side and was not planning to interrupt, suddenly drew her spear when she heard him say "go to the road," and the spearhead hit him directly in the back while she cursed.

"If you say something as unlucky as 'going on the road' again, I'll beat you up!"

An Xi glared fiercely at Zhu Qing.

Old Man Li also looked at him unkindly.

He also seemed somewhat dissatisfied with the word "on the road" he used.

Chu Sheng didn't react much. After hearing Zhu Qing's words, he nodded and said, "Then I'll ask you to exchange them later."

"Or you can bring me a pig spine to combine the two sacrificial offerings."

Chu Sheng wasn't too opposed to the fusion of sacrificial offerings.

As long as it's not an upgrade, everything is fine!

He used extraordinary materials to create sacrificial offerings; that was his sequence ability.

Once the initial cost is incurred, sequence abilities do not require further cost.

After fusing with the sacrificial object, he only needs to rest for a period of time before he can use his abilities again.

He calls this break a CD. It's roughly a 6-hour CD, but that time is decreasing over time.

It seemed that his rank was advancing every moment.

He also learned about this from Captain Hui and Zhu Qing.

Not just him, anyone who awakens a sequence will have their sequence constantly growing, and for a combat sequence like Zhu Qing's, the growth in battle will be even faster.

Especially for someone in his giant rank, he can basically advance simply by being beaten or beating others.

This is why no one was surprised when Zhu Qing suddenly said that he had become Sequence 8.

There's no other reason than that I was already mentally prepared.

The next one to be promoted will most likely be An Xi, or Captain Zhang Hui.

One is a combat sequence, and the other is a sequence used daily for navigation.

Using sequences too frequently can also make them grow faster.

After the extraordinary materials were distributed, Captain Hui looked ahead at the convoy, his fingers constantly calculating, and then addressed the group.

"Let's take a break. There's a gas station not far ahead. The monster pig came from that side, so there's nothing strange there anymore."

Everyone nodded; they knew it without needing to calculate it.

The closer you get to the eerie entity, the more it senses its presence and will unconsciously move closer to the convoy.

When the apocalypse began, some people did think about building survival bases, but without exception, too many people gathered there.

The gathering of hundreds of thousands of people was like an artificial sun in the darkness for the supernatural.

The base was destroyed in less than ten days after it was established.

Chu Sheng had been thinking of visiting this kind of survival base, but after hearing about it on the radio, he was terrified for two days. Luckily, he didn't go.

It was after this that the human leadership established a system centered around leaders like Hui, who were well-suited to be guides, with each leader forming their own team to lead survivors through the apocalypse and help them evade bizarre hunts.

However, not every Sequence Transcendent suitable to be a leader wants to take care of survivors.

However, the higher-ups put forward the theory of anger, which states that everyone's anger attracts the supernatural. Although one person's anger is much less than that of hundreds of people, it is actually the same to the supernatural.

The more angry you are, the more the supernatural will like you and the easier it will be for it to target you.

However, if the convoy is targeted by the supernatural, and the sequence ability users are no match for them, then the ordinary people will become their tails.

It's the same principle as a gecko shedding its tail to survive when it encounters danger.

It was cruel, yet it provided as much protection as possible for ordinary people.

Otherwise, given the personalities of many people, they wouldn't actually bother with these survivors.

For those with a sequence of extraordinary abilities, ordinary people are just a tail.

"I wonder when this will ever end." Old Li leaned closer to Chu Sheng, took out a gourd from his waist, and took a couple of sips.

A strong smell of alcohol immediately filled Chu Sheng's mouth and nose.

"We're about to enter the gas station, and you're still drinking?!"

"Life is like a dream, and I'm not drunk," Old Li chuckled.

An Xi also came over at this time. She seemed to have heard what Old Man Li said at the beginning. She was silent for a while, and then she also looked into the distance.

"I believe that even in the end times, there will be a city of dawn."

"If you don't have one, then make one yourself!"
